Abstract(in English) We propose a new faster-than-at-speed test method to detect small delay defects. As semiconductor technology is scaling down, transistor aging such as NBTI and TDDB becomes major concern on field reliability. Since these aging mechanisms manifest as gradual delay increase, it is possible to predict system failure by detecting small delay increase. In this paper, we consider two criterions on capability of small delay defect detection, and propose two test pattern generation method for both criterions, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
